Week of Nov. 2nd-

 Team Urban,

We had a great party this afternoon, eating snacks, popcorn, candy, and cookies, and making a paper-chain skeleton. Our Room Mom did a fantastic job with the decor setup. She also took time to make each kiddo their own Halloween picture below.  

Thank you to everyone who donated items or food/drink to our Halloween party. It was a success because of all the generous donations and the help we had in class as well.  Thank you!! 

AR goals for the 2nd trimester will begin on Tuesday. AR goals are set based on the reading time each day and their most recent STAR reading test score.  I will be setting new AR goals with students this week.
